she puzzled, half to herself. "If cigarette
smoking Isn't a great moral issue then I

to health as is excessive use of liquor.
"And as for moralswell, rf cigarette

STRAUS DECIiARES ROOSEVELT
WANTED LEAGUE OF NATIONS
Oscar 8. Straus, Intimat1 i iend of the
late Theodore Roosevelt, ' f-retary . of
commerce and labor and u,.,,.iistsador to
Turkey during the Roosevelt adminis
tration.' and "the Progressive candidate
for governor tn New York Jn 1913, has
sent the following telegram to the editor
of, the San Francisco Chronicle,' a John
son supporter,' which has in turn been
given out for publication by the Hoover
headquarters : : , .W "- -
T understand the supporters of Hiram
Johnson' claim that In his opposition to
the League of Nations with the lodge
reservations or in any form John
son represents the position and ideals of
Theodore : Boosevelt. , Permit me. for
the information of the people of Cali
fornia and in Justice to Roosevelt, -to
state that any such claim Is without
foundation. The fact is tht Roosevelt
was not only in favor of a League of
Nations but was the first among the
world's foremost statesmen in our gen
eration who advocated a strong League
of Nations or League of Peace. In his
Nobel prize' address in Chrlstlania on
May S, 1910, he said : "It would be a
master stroke 41 those great powers
honestly bent on peace should form a
League of Peace not Only to keep the
peace among themselves but to prevent
by force if necessary its being broken
by ethers.' ir- f--
When- the League to Enforce Peace
was formed at. first he did not approve
It, believing that it proposal for the use
of force was not sufficiently i effective.
Subsequently before his last illness, when
the amended provisions were;; explained
to him. he approved of the league and
so stated to me and also, if I mistake
not, so stated to! Taft. On December
21, 1918, I sought his advice regarding
my going t Paris as European chair
man of thei league for the purpose of
advocating a League . of. Nations. He
emphatically; advised me to go. The
foregoing facta I feel Justify me in say
ing that he . would havei.. approved a
strong League of Nations with power
to enforce its decisions and that John
son's violent opposition'" to a league in
any form dees not represent the views
of the visloned and Immortal Roosevelt."

G. O. P. CANDIDATES QUERIED "
. ON PUBLIC LAND QUESTIONS
Eugene, May 6. Representative Louis
E. Bean of ithi lty, candidate for re-
nomination to the legislature on the Re
publican ticket,-is forwarding -to each
of the RepebKcan candidates for the
presidency, ai set of pointed questions as
to their position and policy regarding the
disposition , of. the public lands of Ore
gon. Statistic have Vbeen compiled by
Bean and placed before the candidates,
showing that more than one half the
total area of; Oregon is included, in for
est reserves! or unappropriated public
lands, which! if assessed on a like basis
with private-towrted" lands would produce
approximately. $2,000,000 in-revenue.
He goes on I to show that the state
feels keenly f that It is being discrim
inated against I by the ? permanent with
drawal of these public lands-' and that
it is not on an equal footing .with other
states. He asserts that the people of
Oregon will jbet pleased to know Whether
the candidates; approve of this policy of
permanent government : ownership , for
the benefit of future generations ?! wheth
er, they wHl favor the "just and equal
compensation of the state by direct fed
eral appropriation or otherwise ! in lieu
of the right jof taxation"; whether they
will favor the turning over of theee lands
to the states! to be administered by them
under proper legislation, or the policy
now advocated by some, of the further
extension and enlargement of the forest
reserves; whether they will approve the
policy of extending-federal control over
private owned timber lands, as advocat
ed by some officials of the forestry de

at the Manhattan, and Proctor will be at
the St. Regis. : -
After the general's arrival there prom
ises to be a general movement of forces

HITCHCOCK PICKED TO, WIK
And what takes place after that re
mains to be seen. Thus far there has
been considerable bitter talk, never for
direct quotation, on both sides. The de
cision of the general may i not result in
either Hitchcock or Proctor, leaving his
board of management, but Is expected to
bring about a staking off of the re
spective spheres of Influence of the two
leaders, and in view of the fact that
the pre-convention race is now1 virtually
out of the primaries stage and; into the
stage where sharp political maneuvering
Is In order. Hitchcock is expected by his
supporters here to win - the decision
against Proctor. He will then begin the
crucial battle with Penrose, the results
of which will be known some time on
or after June 8, :next, at Chicago.
